Buying a German Company

There are many firms considering the possibility of expanding their businesses into Germany and there are various ways of doing so.

In my previous articles, I expounded on how you could set up a branch of your company and recommended a strategy that can be implemented step by step.

Today I will show you another method, a kind of insider tip!

Germany is a country with a generational problem. Check out the link below.

Without delving too deep into this subject, let us see how a foreign business can take this as a chance to expand into Germany.

Growing older with the passage of time is not something that affects employees but employers as well, many of whom lack heirs who can eventually take over the business. This creates an excellent opportunity for one to acquire an already existing business either partially or entirely.

The advantages: Germans are very conservative and everyone who has tried to acquire new clients in Germany will have realized that. Therefore, as it is so difficult even for a German company with a German salesperson to find new contacts, imagine how much harder it can be for a foreigner without native language knowledge!

This is almost impossible. However, if you buy a German entity, you buy the clients, the German employees and the reputation of many years of successful business! You can thereafter add your own innovations, your own ideas and grow the business at your own pace. Moreover, you will be operating within the most successful economy in Europe from one day to the next!

How do you find the suitable company to acquire? You need an insider, preferably a German, who knows about business in Germany, has many years of experience and the right communication skills.

You can search the net and you will typically come across many agencies willing to offer you their services as well as their databases of clients seeking to sell their businesses. Though this generic approach certainly works to their corporate advantage, it may not be the best choice for you.

Alternatively, you could book my personalized service as I have sound command in this industry. My service is tailored to give you independence, plus the support of my experience and a reliable reputation. You will be well connected to all the key sources such that you will be able to precisely identify the entity most suited to your needs. As a seasoned contact person who is in a situation similar to yours, I can perfectly negotiate with the business owner(s) thereby simplifying the way for you to acquire their firm.

How I am I in a similar situation? Well, I am 65 years now and I hope to run my consultancy for many more years to come. However, I am realistic too, and so there is the lingering expectation that the work may end at some point in time.

Therefore, as far as possible, I wish to keep my business from being over when I am over. One reason for this is a financial one (support for my family) and another is that I love my work and I want it to continue even after I am gone!

Therefore, I too seek for an investor - someone who knows the business, who is prepared to use my existing contacts as well as my reputation in order to create streams of revenue and enhance it with many more viable ideas and plans.

The conclusion, as you may have well received by now, is that I am exceptionally positioned to establish the suitable basis of communication between you and prospective business owners!

So if you plan on joining the German market, regardless of what the nature or size of your business is, get in touch with me for further information!
